Python Overview:
- High-level, interpreted programming language focused on code readability.
- Used in applications like Instagram, Netflix, Spotify, Panda3D.
- Multi-paradigm: supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming.
- Interpreted, dynamic, and cross-platform.
- Open-source, managed by Python Software Foundation (PSF) with the PSF License.
- Continuously ranked as one of the most popular programming languages.
History:
- Created by Guido van Rossum in the late 1980s in the Netherlands.
- Succeeded the ABC programming language with better exception handling and OS interaction.
- Named after Monty Python, a British comedy group.
- Van Rossum known as Benevolent Dictator for Life (BDFL) until stepping down in 2018.
- First version (0.9.0) released in 1991 with classes, exceptions, and modular types.
- Major community milestone: formation of comp.lang.python discussion forum in 1994.
- Version 1.0 released in 1994, introduced functional programming tools.
- Last CWI version (1.2) in 1995; development moved to CNRI in Virginia.
- Launched CP4E initiative to make programming accessible to more people.
- Python 2.0 released in 2000 with list comprehensions and garbage collection.
- Python Software Foundation established in 2001 to manage the language's development and licensing.
Philosophy:
- Emphasizes readability, simplicity, and explicitness.
- Pythonic code adheres to principles outlined in "The Zen of Python" by Tim Peters, such as:
- "Beautiful is better than ugly."
- "Explicit is better than implicit."
- "Simple is better than complex."
- "Readability counts."
- "There should be one—and preferably only one—obvious way to do it."
Data Types:
- Strings (str): Immutable sequences of characters.
- Bytes (bytes): Immutable sequences of bytes.
- Lists (list): Mutable sequences, can contain different types.
- Tuples (tuple): Immutable sequences, can contain different types.
- Sets (set): Mutable, unordered collections of unique items.
- Frozen sets (frozenset): Immutable sets.
- Dictionaries (dict): Mutable collections of key-value pairs.
- Integers (int): Arbitrary-precision whole numbers.
- Floats (float): Double-precision floating-point numbers.
- Complex numbers (complex): Numbers with real and imaginary parts.
- Booleans (bool): True or False values.
Control Structures:
- Conditional Statements:
if
,elif
,else
for branching logic.
- Loops:
for
loop to iterate over sequences.while
loop for repeating as long as a condition is true.
- Comprehensions:
- List comprehensions for creating lists based on existing sequences.
- Conditional Statements:
Data Structures:
- Lists: Ordered, mutable collections.
- Tuples: Ordered, immutable collections.
- Dictionaries: Unordered collections of key-value pairs.
- Sets: Unordered collections of unique items.
Advanced Features:
- Functions:
- Defined with
def
keyword. - Support for default arguments, variable-length arguments (
*args
), and keyword arguments (**kwargs
).
- Defined with
- Lambda Expressions:
- Anonymous functions for short, throwaway functions.
- Functions:
Pattern Matching:
- match-case statement (introduced in Python 3.10) for complex conditional logic, including type checking and attribute matching.
This summary captures the essential points and key features of Python, providing a comprehensive overview of its history, philosophy, data types, control structures, and advanced features.
